<TITLE>56. Par -</TITLE>L-90-1 Now, the womb... Eve, received the wrong seed word. Now, listen real close now. We're going to drive this right down, if the Lord willing. She received the wrong word. What did it do? It was Satan's lie: said she'd be wise; why, she could belong to the big church; she'd be well-thought-of in the city; why, she'd be like the rest of the people. Sure, that's exactly what Jehovah's bride believed. That's exactly. That's exactly what Satan would've tried to have said when the Word come to Mary, but she shook him away.
Said, "How can this be?"
Said, "The Holy Ghost will overshadow you. It's the Word of God."
Said, "Be it unto me according to Thy Word." That brought the Life. There you are.
Well, did you know Satan said, "They'll all laugh at you."
That little rosy cheeked girl didn't pay any attention to that. Right up in Judaea she went and, "You know, I'm going to have a baby"; before she felt anything, because the Word had already been set there. That was all. She didn't have to go through the prayer line the second time. No...?... Yes, sir; she believed it. She didn't have any sign of life; she never had no sign of pregnancy at all; she never felt nothing; she--her--everything had been just like it was, but she went telling everybody, "I'm going to have a baby." Why? God said so. What's that? The Royal seed of Abraham.

L-90-3 "Going to have a baby, Abraham, by that woman?"
"God said so."
"Well, you told me that twenty-five years ago."
"I know, but God said so." That's it. There you are. That's the same thing.
What do you say today? "Why, you know the denomination will kick you out."
"But God said so; God said so."
"Well, you know, if you get baptized like that..."
"Well, God said so. That's it. That's it."
There's your virgin; there she is. Not only to baptism, but anything else, the rest of the Word. See? So watch.

L-91-1 This was both physical and spiritual with Eve. First and any time... Now, I've told you and ask you this morning, sisters, to forgive me so I can make sure that... Any time that a woman takes the wrong step... I'm talking about Christ and Bride now. But any time a woman takes a wrong step, she has to first receive it in her mind. That's right. Some slicker has to persuade her, and she listens to it against her own better judgment. Then the act's committed. So first, it hit... Satan hit Eve's mind, and in the womb of her mind she doubted God's Word; then come the actual act.

L-91-2 And the only way that we can ever be borned again is first in the womb of the mind receive the Word, and then the Spirit comes on top of that and brings it. There you are. That's what does it. That's the real Gospel teaching, brother. I believe if Saint Paul was standing today he'd teach the same thing (Amen.) in this hour. All right.
What was the results with her? Physical and spiritual death. What is the results of those who accept the other word, it goes into this frolic today that they got? Both physical and spiritual death. Both body and spirit shall be annihilated, be no more. That's exactly right.

L-91-4 Note, Mary's womb--Mary's womb, the physical mind (See?), was virgin womb. Why? She believed God's Word. No matter how much anybody criticized, how many things somebody else said, that didn't have one thing to do with it; she believed God's Word regardless.
Oh, I wished I could just get that over. Are you getting it? See, first, was her mind. Before the act ever taken place in her literal womb, the act had to take place in here first to let the Spirit come in, to do the rest of the work. Oh, before the actual spiritual birth can take place, the Word has to find Itself through your mind; believe It. "He that heareth My Word, and believeth on Him that sent Me, hath Eternal Life, and shall never come to the judgment, but's (or through the tribulation period), but has passed from death unto Life." That's it.
